DIY: Waterproof Your Garage Floor

Wet weather leads to ruined garage floors. All that moisture and rain can really affect your concrete. But,have no fear, here’s an easy DIY to maintain your garage floors in this wet season.

What you will need:

Broom and dustpan

Scrub brush and cleaning product

Waterproof epoxy or waterproof paint

The first thing you’ll need to do is clear everything off the floor of your garage. Then inspect your garage for any damaged areas (cracks, holes, or seam). You’ll need to repair these before you waterproof.

Clean your garage floor. Sweep and scrub the entire thing. You don’t want any dirt caught under the waterproofing. If you have oil stains we have another blog post with an easy way to remove them yourself here: DIY: Removing Grease Stains In Your Garage

Use a waterproof epoxy or paint on your floor. Make sure to follow the given instructions on the pain or waterproof epoxy. Allow floors to dry.
